It holds no relevance for me now. But before it held the same relevance as someone winning the Super Bowl, basketball championship, World Series etc. It's a fun competition. But now I realize that where sporting events may actually measure how well a person/team is physically or how they accomplish goals as a team, the Oscars don't measure those things in a team of filmmakers. I used to feel that it actually meant something, a long time ago, but now I don't.
Not only that, but I'm not sure any kind of award can truly represent anything.
I don't know if that made any sense at all...
